A month had gone by.

Ava and Seamus were back to being good friends, though Ava still had to listen to him tease her.

Ava and her friends sat on their bed and gossiped. She looked out the window, it was getting dark but she could still see a few figures running about, and a teacher yelling at them to get inside.

A year ago, a murderer named Serius Black escaped from Askaban and Hogwarts was put under protection. Far in the distance she could see black figures floating around.

Those were the dementors. They were suppose to keep Serius Black away from the castle. Ava thought Dumblefore was crazy to let them anywhere near the castle. Ava turned away from the window and joined in with her friends.

Ava dreamed of the little boy again

The little boy wasn't a little boy anymore, he was around 13 and he was bowing to the man in the dark robes, Ava was being held back by two other men. She screamed at the man to get away from the boy.

The boy looked at her. " Its alright mother, this is my place in life, I will serve the dark lord"

Ava sobbed.

She woke up screaming, she heard movement all around her, Donna was by her side instantly, she whispered soothing words in her ear .Nancy and Gemma were holding her down

Ava stopped shaking and just laid there stunned and sweating.

She heard frantic knocking on the door, then she heard it open as someone went to get it, she heard frantic whispers

" its Ava" came Elaine' voice

she heard another voice, a male voice.

" No its fine, we can handle it" Elaine said.

Then she closed the door.

She just stayed still in shock. " is she dead?" Elaine whispered. Ava couldn't blame her when she asked if she was dead, she was so still that even she thought she wasn't alive.

Ava moved slightly to show them that she wasn't dead, Donna sighed in relief.

"I'm fine" Ava mumbled, and turned over and tried to go back to sleep. She could still feel Donna sitting on her bed. Soon she felt her bed lighten, and she peeked over her shoulder to see Donna leaving the room. The rest of the girls were sitting in their bed, staring at Ava. She ignored them and fell into a light sleep.

The next morning during class. Ava could not concentrate on her work during potions, she drew squiggles on her study notes, and mixed up the ingredients for the potion.

There was a knock on the classroom door and Professor Macgonogal walked in.

" She glanced at Ava and looked at Snape. " Sorry to disrupt your class Severus but I need to see Miss. Bronson right away, Dumbledore would like to speak with her". The whole class looked at Ava.

Snape made a face towards her and looked at Macgonogal " Why of course, take her for as long as you like"

Ava got up from her seat and refused to look at any of her classmates as she walked out of the class. Professor Macgonogal put a hand on her shoulder "Thank you Severus"

Then they walked down the corridor.

They walked for a while in silence. Then they reached a massive gargoyle.

Macgonogal pointed her wand towards it and said " Sherbert Lemon"

To Ava's surprise, the gargoyle moved, it turned until it was a long staircase.

Macgonogal turned to Ava " Just go right up to the top of the steps dear, Professor Dumbledore will

Be waiting for you"

Ava nodded and walked up the staircase, what on earth does he want to talk to me about, she thought.

When she reached the top, there was a large door, she went to knock on it, but before she could touch it, the door swung open. There stood Professor Dumbledore, in his long bright robes and his kind cheery face.

" Ah! I knew you had arrived, come in come in"

Ava followed him into the room, she took a good look at him, no one ever really saw him up close unless it was at meal times, he was never seen in the corridors in the school hours.

Ava looked all around his office, it was a suprisingly small room, which had many trinkets and various objects. On the wall were portraits of sleeping people, who would once in a while, make a loud snore or a cough or would itch their nose. In the corner of the room beside his desk was the most beautiful bird Ava has ever seen, she reached out to touch it, the feathers were soft, it looked kindly at her.

"Ah yes, that is Faux" Dumbledore said.

" What kind of bird is he?" Ava asked. " Faux is a Phoenix, they are the most incredible birds, they turn to ashes when they die, and they are reborn in the ashes"

Ava looked at him in surprise, he smiled and continued

" The have magical powers too, they can heal any wound with their tears"

Ava didn't understand that statement, but didn't bother asking questions.

She looked back over to Professor Dumbledore who smiled at her " Would you like to take a seat?" he asked.

" No thank you sir, I would much prefer standing up"

"Very well" he said.

He had a very serious look in his eye.

" Miss Bronson, do you have any idea about why you are up here"

Ava shook her head " No sir, am I in trouble?"

He shook his head " No my dear, quite the opposite, but I have been told from Professor Macgonogal, that strange things have been happening too you"

" No, nothing has been happening" she lied. Professor Dumbledore looked at her with a sparkle in his eye

" So you have been having no strange dreams? Nothing?"

Ava looked at him shocked " How did you know that?"

He smiled at her " You know Harry Potter, am I correct?"

" Yes sir, he is one of my good friends"

" Well as I am sure you know, there is a prophecy about him, how he is suppose to defeat Lord Voldemort"

" Yes I know about that"

" Well he isn't the only one with a prophecy",

Ava looked at him confused, though she had a feeling she knew what he was going to say " Who else?" she asked.

" You Ava" he said.

Even though she knew this was coming, she still felt a wave of shock hit her.

" I know that you will come to hate me after telling you this, I know you are much too young to hear all of this, but I have recently heard from your friend that you have been having more and more of these dreams"

" Donna told you?" she said. He nodded " I wanted to wait to tell you as soon as you have been having these dreams, I excpected them to happen in your fifth year which was when I was going to tell you, but it happened much earlier than I thought, I tried to ignore it at first, but as they have been becoming more frequent, I knew that I needed to tell you as soon as possible."

Ava sucked in a breath, she wasn't mad, but she was scared, what was the prophecy?

" I understand that you have been seeing a little boy in your dreams"

Ava nodded.

" Did he say anything to you that might of confused you at all?"

" Yes, he called me mother" she said. Ava could tell that he knew this.

" Ava your dreams that you have been seeing, are not dreams, there are visions of what will happen in the future"

Ava's knees wobbled, she was breathing in sharper breaths now, but she refused to give in to her fear,

" you mean to say that my future son, will be tortured and will serve the dark lord?" she said

"Yes. But that is not all, I wish that I could live my whole life not telling you this, but you need to know…..The prophecy."

" What is the prophecy?" she asked

" When you become old enough, you will bear Lord Voldemorts children, so that they will become powerful and strong just like him"

She gave in, she sunk into the chair behind her and put her head in her hands, she was shaking head to foot. Harry Potter was suppose to save the world, Ava was suppose to destroy it.

" how many people know about this" she asked.

Dumbledore gave her a sad look " Many people know about it, you are just as famous as Harry is"

Ava remember all the looks that people gave her in her past, she remembered the time in Hogsmead when the man at the bar, gave the people in front of her butterbeers, but when she asked for one, he told her that they ran out of butterbeers, and as she left he looked sourly at her.

She remembered how confused she was when people looked pitiful at her. That whole time, she never knew.

Tears rolled down her cheeks, she wanted them to stop but she found she couldn't.

" what will the age be when I am to…have his children" she said slowly.

" 18" he said " But that doesn't mean you will be safe until then, he will want you earlier, so he can keep an eye on you until you turn 18, when you 16, we will have people watching over you, and you are not to go wandering around by yourself"

" I can't believe it, I am suppose to make things worse for the world. why am I in Gryffindor, should I not be in Slytherin then?"

" A choice in house does not matter, the prophecy says it will be you, so he will make it you"

Ava was angry then, all her fear was gone,

She stood up

" I hope you know that I will never give in to him, I won't let my children become one of him, and I will stay by Harry's side until the end!" she yelled, she was furious. If Lord Voldemort thought for a second that she was just going to let him take her, he was wrong.

Dumbledore smiled slightly at her, but he had a proud look in his eyes

" Now that is a true Gryffindor" he whispered.

Ava still had tears coming down her face, but her face was a red because of her anger.

Dumbledore waited patiently until she was finished and she calmed down

Then she asked " Do people think I am a bad person?"

He smiled slightly " At first people were talking, but when they heard that you were sorted into Gryffindor, they knew that they were wrong about you, I have told many people as well that you have a kind heart, and that you have very few people still believe that you are bad. For example the fellow in Hogsmead that was very unfair to you"

Ava wasn't surprised any more about what he knew about her but she still asked " So he did have more butterbeers?"

Dumbledore nodded silently.

She was angry " I will prove them wrong, I am a good person and they should know that"

Dumbledore just looked at her

" May I go now professor?" she asked

" Yes you may, but before you go, I want you to know that I will be mentioning this to Harry Potter in about a year or so, when he is ready to hear it"

Ava nodded, as she began to walk out the door, a thought came to her mind " Do my parents know?" she asked

" yes, they knew since the day you first came to Hogwarts"

she didn't say anything, she just walked out the door and ran down the stairs, she never realized how long she stayed in his office for until she looked out the window, it was very dark out, she figured it must be 10, she walked slowly to the common room, she thought about what would happen in the future, would her parents be in trouble? Would her friends?

Would Harry see her as an enemy?

As she walked she looked at the torches in the corridors, she had an urge to stick her hand in one, as if to wake her up from a terrible dream. She decided against it and continued in the direction on the common room.

When she got there she found her friends sitting happily by the fire, waiting up for her.

They turned when they saw her walk in " Hey! How was Dumbledore?" Ben asked.

" You took forever up there, we thought that you got expelled" Seamus joked.

Ava wanted to run to her room, she wanted to be alone, but she realized that she only had so much time with her friends, she smiled and walked over to them and sat down beside Donna. She smiled up at Seamus " Be Quiet, your only jealous because I get more praise from Dumbledore than you do"

Gemma laughed,

As Everyone went back to talking, Ava hugged Donna

Donna looked at her " Why did I do to get a hug?" she joked, Ava sighed " Just hug me back okay?"

Donna smiled and did as she was told.

It suddenly dawned on Ava that Donna did not know about the Porphecy, would she still be her best friend after she knew? Or would she grow to hate her? Ava wanted to keep their friendship as long as possible, if Donna was to hate her in the end, she would spend as much time as possible with her so she had happy memories to look back too.

She only hoped that it would never happen.
